I Can't Laugh It Away

Looking back on tear stained notebooks Wiping away the blood Forgetting how the scars looked Trying to explain this all to you Pouring out my soul Trying to explain the things that I do But it all just seems so old
Losing my mind Feeling my heart race I swear I'm trying To get through this day
You tell me to laugh it all away Your "hehe"s and "lol"s You tell me that will get me through the day Laugh away the pain Laugh away the sorrow Nevermind the fact that nothing seems the same That my heart hurts too much To think about tomorrow
So I try to laugh Put on a fake smile No matter how hard I try It doesn't seem worth the while Finally I asked you why Your face fell Then I got my answer
"I laugh because I don't want to think Laughing isn't real It makes me forget what is"
So I turn away and hide my tears Never dimmed By just one more year Create more tears over old memories Replace the blood stains So they're more clear

I really like this, but you're right, it kinda falls apart in the last stanza. Its like, your idea is still there, but you lost the words. Besides that, beutiful poem, I can really relate. =)) |
